In addition to calling 911, and trying to convince police that a Black bird-watcher was a threat, Amy Cooper made a second call to the cops stating that he had assaulted her<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If the DA has any stones, he should charge her with attempted murder:<\/p>\n

Amy Cooper, the white woman who called the police on a Black bird-watcher in Central Park, made a second, previously unreported call to 911 in which she falsely claimed that the man tried to assault her, a prosecutor said on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe defendant twice reported that an African-American man was putting her in danger, first by stating that he was threatening her and her dog, then making a second call indicating that he tried to assault her in the Ramble area of the park,\u201d Joan Illuzzi, a senior prosecutor, said.<\/p>\n

The second call was disclosed as Ms. Cooper appeared remotely in Manhattan Criminal Court to answer a misdemeanor charge of filing a false police report, which carries a maximum sentence of a year in jail.

Not enough. <\/p>\n

Ms. Cooper had been charged in July<\/a>, and no additional charges were announced on Wednesday. Ms. Illuzzi said the Manhattan district attorney\u2019s office was negotiating a possible plea deal with Ms. Cooper that would allow her to avoid jail.
<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

No.  She tried to get police to kill this man, same as if she unleashed a shark into his swimming pool.<\/p>\n

\u2026\u2026\u2026<\/p>\n

But prosecutors said Ms. Cooper made a later call to 911, which was not shown in the video. In that call, Ms. Cooper told the dispatcher that Mr. Cooper had tried to assault her, according to a criminal complaint.<\/p>\n

When the police arrived, however, Ms. Cooper told an officer that her reports were untrue, and that Mr. Cooper had not touched or assaulted her, the complaint said.<\/p>\n

Still, the prosecutor said the district attorney\u2019s office was exploring a resolution to the case that would require Ms. Cooper to take responsibility for her actions in court and attend a program to educate her on how harmful they were.

No.  This is more white privelege bullsh%$.  If she were Muslim, she would still be in Rikers with no bail.<\/p>\n

She needs some incarcerated time, because otherwise, we will see another Karen doing the same Karen thing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
